<p>[QUOTE=&quot;900fine, post: 1046226, member: 6036&quot;]Give it the ol&#039; ring test... balance it on the tip of your finger, then gently tap the edge with another coin. A struck coin will ring like a tuning fork; a cast counterfeit or electrotype will have a dull thud.</p><p><br /></p><p>This test proves it&#039;s a struck piece, but doesn&#039;t prove it&#039;s genuine. It could still be a counterfeit struck from dies, which is quite possible with this piece. I personally doubt it, since the reverse has such a soft strike (common amongst the liberty caps). I would think a modern counterfeiter would get a better strike, but who knows.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
